We were within rifle shot of the fort 我们在这堡垒的步枪射程内。
This rifle ranges over a mile 这种步枪射程达一英里
The marshals and generals who were closer to the scene of action , but , like napoleon , not actually taking part in it , and only at intervals riding within bullet range , made their plans without asking napoleon , and gave their orders from where and in what direction to fire , and where the cavalry were to gallop and the infantry to run 元帅们和将军们离战场较近,但也和拿破仑一样,没有参加战斗,只是偶尔走到步枪射程以内,并不向拿破仑请示,自己就发出了命令,指示向哪儿从哪儿射击,骑兵向哪儿去,步兵往哪儿跑。
